KINROSS MIDDLE SCHOOL, PROGRESS
I refer to the article in The West Australian of Saturday, 19 May, regarding union criticism of the Government shelving and delaying construction projects and, specifically, the Premier’s statement that the Kinross Middle School was being “discussed with developers”, and ask - (1) What progress is being made on the Kinross Middle School project? (2) How much of the $3 million allocated in the 2000-01 budget by the former Government has been spent on the project to date? (3) Is the school still on schedule to open in February 2002, as promised by the former Government? (4) If not, why not? Dr GALLOP

I thank the member for some notice of this question. (1) The Kinross Middle School, also known as the Kinross years 6 to 10 school, is currently in the tender evaluation phase, after six tenders were submitted on 27 April 2001. (2) $612 662.40 (3) The school is still on schedule to open in February 2002, but the time frame is currently very tight. Unavoidable delays in calling tenders due to the recent state election moratorium on advertising, and an extended tender evaluation period, have absorbed most of the time contingency provided in the project plan. (4) Not applicable.
